Tantalum Marker Pins

X-medics offers tantalum pins in pre-cut lengths. The pins are a good radiopaque solution as they offer strong radiographic opacity and excellent biocompatibility and are suitable as tantalum markers applied in medical devices made from e.g. PEEK. Being made from straightened, high tolerance, unannealed tantalum wire, the tantalum marker pins have adequate mechanical properties to withstand the impact of insertion. Essentially any diameter tantalum wire can be cut into x-ray marker pins in lengths from 1.5 times the diameter and up.

Special orders are welcome for many lengths and diameters that you don’t currently see in stock, so please do not hesitate to contact us with your requirements.

Tantalum Pin Tolerance

X-medics standard pin tolerance is +/- 0.010 mm in diameter and 0.05 mm in length. The tolerances that has been optimized for  general tolerance requirements when inserted into PEEK and other medical grade materials design.

Tantalum Specifications

Surgical (unalloyed pure) tantalum markers may be made from two metal grades – R05200 (electron beam / vacuum arc melted) and R05400 (sintered). Tantalum R05200 and Tantalum R05400 are equally suitable for surgery and offer almost similar mechanical and chemical characteristics.

Pin End-style

X-medics’ tantalum pin is delivered burr-free (sharp edge) offering the best performance / price ratio in most applications. Other end-styles may be offered on custom order basis.

ASTM F86 Cleaning and Passivation

ASTM F86 Cleaning and Passivation is a the most advanced standard for cleaning particles and process residues from the tantalum surface. As ASTM F86 is a cost efficient cleaning method it is specified by 90 percent of X-medics’ customers.

3rd Party Evaluation

Every material lot used in X-medics’ production of tantalum pins has been tested by an independent ISO 17025 accredited laboratory to confirm that the tantalum materiel satisfies the requirements of ASTM F560 / ISO 13782 and is suitable for pin processing. The laboratory analyses the chemical and mechanical characteristics of the wire and compare them again the tantalum specifications and issues an report

Conflict Free Sourcing

All X-medics’ tantalum products are conflict-free. X-medics only works with suppliers that can show evidence for a continuous 3rd party auditing, performed by independent auditors appointed by Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (www.eicc.info), or similar recognized bodies. Proper origin of the materials, and compliance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act’s conflict minerals is required to be documented, and this documentation can be tracked on the certificate that follows any shipment from X-medics. X-medics does not use tantalum minerals with origin in the DRC Congo, or other conflict areas covered by the law.
